Chapter 540 Steamed Fish
When Mr. Zhong saw Zhong Jiasheng's obvious hesitation, he didn't want to create a rift with his son because of some old things.
I simply stopped hiding it.
"You came back late and didn't meet Mr. Yang. He is different from the Yang family members you meet now. He is a man with a great vision and foresight."
"You are actually very similar to him, not in character, but in your style and methods of doing things."
Zhong Jiasheng didn't feel like he was complimenting anyone. He pursed his lips and met Zhong's father's gaze, as if he had guessed it right.
Father Zhong chose his words carefully, "More than 20 years ago, Mr. Yang placed his hopes on the next generation, but unfortunately, when he died, he didn't have a grandchild to satisfy him.
The biggest regret of Mr. Yang before he passed away was that he had no successor and was afraid that the Yang family would fail. "
Zhong Jiasheng frowned, "What's the matter with the jade ring?"
"Zhong Xu has no business acumen. Even if he is given to me, it will only be for show. I know the real intention very well."
Zhong Bangyou didn't want to say the worst about his deceased father-in-law, but Zhong Jiasheng couldn't hide the truth.
"First, it has the meaning of holding the emperor hostage to control the princes, and second, it helps the first and second branches of the Yang family to temporarily avoid internal strife and split up.
Third, he wanted to use my promotion to serve as a protective umbrella for the Yang family."
“…”
Zhong Jiasheng was sure that what his father had just said was derogatory.
It is true that he is a visionary, and it is also true that he is a thief when he is old.
Father Zhong was very open-minded and smiled again, "If your grandpa knew that you were his biological grandson before he passed away, he would definitely give you a lot of benefits and let you take the surname Yang, or let one of Mozi and Youyou change their surnames."
"It's a pity that even after all the calculations, I still couldn't have expected that Zhong Xu was not a real member of the Zhong family. Otherwise, your grandfather's move would have been a real checkmate."
Zhong Jiasheng pondered in his mind without saying a word, but he had other thoughts in his mind.
"Jiasheng, you can't fight against nature, not everything will go as you expect.
Whatever you are most proud of, that is what will take away the things you cherish most, without exception. You must always remember this."
The last sentence is what Mr. Zhong wanted to say to his son.
Lunch was served in silence.
Except for the twins who look like little piglets.
Youyou and Mozi finished eating a whole steamed sea fish weighing more than two kilograms, and they licked their little lips, feeling a little unsatisfied.
Mozai waved in the direction of the dining table, "More fish!"
"Youyou wants one too."
Lin Yiyi looked at her son, whose face was covered with tears, and said softly, "You two greedy little brats, you can't eat any more.
If you want to eat steamed fish, you have to wait until dinner."
"No, I want more! I'm hungry."
"Mommy, Grandma, Youyou wants to eat more fish!" Youyou pouted, obviously wanting to eat more.
...
Complaining and making trouble doesn't work in the Zhong family. Mr. and Mrs. Zhong just pretended not to hear, and Lin Yiyi stopped trying to coax her.
At times like this, it is more effective for the child's father to step in.
Zhong Jiasheng received several glances and interrupted, "Youyou Mozi, the daily meal size is fixed, you can't eat more."
After Daddy said this, the two little brothers knew that he would not give them more, and continued to dip the rice balls in the juice and eat them.
After dinner.
After the nanny brought the twins back to the garden house for a nap, the Zhong family members went back to their rooms to rest.
Although Yang Ying was dissatisfied with her husband's actions, her tone of voice was very gentle.
"Why are you suddenly so angry today? Can't you talk about it calmly?"
Zhong Bangyou didn't want his wife to know some things, so he decisively chose to let his son take the blame.
"What kind of person is Jiasheng? He won't take it seriously unless you make it serious.
Instead, he will just brush it off. I am doing this for his own good."
He was right. Yang Ying glared at him, sat next to her husband and advised, "Be careful and don't scare the children at home.
It's not like you're at work, so you don't need to be so serious. I was shocked by you."
Zhong Bangyou patted his wife's shoulder gently to express his apology.
"I'll pay attention next time."
Yang Ying covered her mouth and chuckled, "There will be a next time? You are not a young man, so be less angry."
Zhong Bang wanted to refute, but he had to admit that he was old.
The afternoon health tea was secretly replaced with deer antler tea.
…
The bedroom at the other end of the second floor.
Zhong Jiasheng sat at the desk and carefully pondered over all of Zhong's father's words. He would naturally learn from the lessons of the past.
After thinking about the amount of US dollars he had given out, he realized that there was still one thing he needed to finish.
As for the rest, it depends on human nature and destiny.
Sun Fei received the envelope again. The thinness made her think it was an empty envelope. When she opened it, she saw only 200 US dollars inside.
All her hopes were dashed. She couldn't find any useful information, so naturally she couldn't exchange it for any money.
Looking down at her cracked leather shoes, she felt almost suffocated by the feeling of helplessness and the pressure of life.
What should she do next?
...
Time passed quickly and two more days passed.
A private banquet was held on a small island in the sea area of Hong Kong.
Lin Yiyi got up early in the morning, washed, dressed, and went to the pier with her family, and then took a yacht to the island.
The island where the banquet was held was also where the Yang family had held their engagement banquet before.
Confidentiality and security are relatively guaranteed.
There will definitely be many reporters coming to the city hotel or the Zhong family residence to take pictures secretly.
The enclosed island does not allow any yacht other than a luxury yacht marina to dock, and if you are not an invited reporter, don't even think about taking close shots.
Considering the identity and nature of Mr. Zhong's work, the birthday party was actually called a wine tasting party, and only relatives and close friends of the Zhong and Yang families were invited.
Lin Yiyi followed her mother-in-law to receive the ladies, while Zhong Jiasheng and his father-in-law received the men.
Being a "greeter" while wearing high heels is really a technical job, her face was almost frozen from smiling.
However, when she saw Ding Li's figure, Lin Yiyi was really stunned.
How come he is here?
What was even more surprising was that my father-in-law seemed to be very familiar with the middle-aged man next to Ding Li, and they greeted each other with laughter.
The picture is strangely bizarre.
Zhong Bangyou said, "Mr. Ding Qiming, please come in."
Zhong Jiasheng pulled the corner of his mouth, as if smiling, "Eli, long time no see."
Ding Li retracted his gaze, "Gary, long time no see."
Zhong Bangyou and Ding Qiming noticed the reactions of the two men and were afraid that if they took action directly, they would delay their work.
"Eli, come with me to say hello to the others." Ding Qiming called his son and walked inside.
As the two figures walked away, Zhong Bangyou patted his son on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Keep calm and don't forget what you should do."
Zhong Jiasheng clenched his back teeth, his black eyes were like steel knives, and he wished he could chop Ding Li in half immediately.
He pretended to be calm and said in a deep voice, "Dad, I know what to do."
